Rylie Horrall\u00a0<\/strong> | Lifestyle Editor<\/span><\/p>\n After finals are all finished, many students may be excited because of two things: one, spring break is around the corner, and two, they can get rid of their textbooks. Most classes on campus have textbooks that require students to pay potentially large sums of money for them. If, once the term is over, that textbook no longer has a purpose, there\u2019s a few things that can be done.<\/span><\/p>\n The WolfStore, located in the Werner University Center, will generally buy back books during the last two to three weeks of the term. While some books won\u2019t be bought back, it\u2019s a chance for someone to get a little bit of their money back. If the textbook is in \u2018high demand,\u2019 meaning if the book will be utilized during the following term, it can be worth more. Currently, students can sell their books until March 20.<\/span><\/p>\n There\u2019s also the alternative of selling textbooks on Amazon using their buyback\/trade-in program. Like the WolfStore, selling won\u2019t always work \u2014 depending on the condition or whether the book qualifies for the trade-in. If a student chooses this route, their money would only be available as an Amazon gift card. On the other hand, there are a few used bookstores and thrift stores in the IndyMo area that could be interested in purchasing used textbooks.<\/span><\/p>\n Many students take the route of just selling their used books to their friends, should their friends need them for next term. A person may not make money this way, if they choose not to charge somebody that\u2019s interested, but the one who\u2019s receiving the book could be saving a lot of money, especially if the textbook is expensive.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
